Two women — Georjann Morriseau and Michele Solomon — are vying to replace former chief Peter Collins, who stepped down last year.This interview was lightly edited for brevity and clarity.Georjann Morriseau: I was formerly the chief here a number of years ago and since then, I've continuously worked for, First Nations and even corporate Canada.
Morriseau: If I'm elected, first and foremost is community engagement. I think that's something in order to affect any kind of change, in order for change to be successful and sustainable is you have to have your community and your people on board aware, informed, in the know and be part of that decision making and that lends back to the overall stability of the nation and prosperity moving forward.
